Ready to give public transportation a try? With the Tfor2 Transit Program, eligible employees and residents can ride the MBTA free for two months and discover how easy, affordable, and stress-free commuting can be. Participants commit to taking transit at least two days per week while logging their trips through GoMassCommute.com/WatertownTMA to track their progress and build new commuting habits.
Whether you're looking to save money on gas and parking, avoid traffic, reduce your environmental impact, or simply explore a new way to get around, Tfor2 provides the opportunity to test transit with confidence. By the end of the program, many participants find that public transportation has become a convenient part of their routine—and a smarter way to commute.

The goal of the program is to reduce solo driving and encourage greater use of public transportation. Commuting by transit at least two days per week is a helpful guideline for participants adjusting their travel habits. We understand that schedules can vary, so eligibility is based on your overall transit usage across the month. If transit accounts for less than 40% of your total commute, you would not qualify for the second month free.
